Description
The safe-output handlers are inconsistent on unresolvable target/permission errors: resolve_pull_request_review_thread soft-skips (job stays success) while create_pull_request_review_comment, add_comment, add_labels/remove_labels, and update_issue hard-fail the job. The same run can have one handler soft-skip and a sibling hard-fail on the identical permission error. Standardize the target-resolution handler family to soft-skip on unresolvable target/permission so a single un-actionable item never reddens an otherwise-successful job.
Expected Impact
Fewer spurious safe-output job failures; consistent behavior across the handler family. Directly addresses the recurring smoke safe-output failures (3 of last 4 audited days).
Suggested Agent
Safe Output Health agent / handler maintainer.
Estimated Effort
Medium (1-4 hours)
